Long story. Was in the hospital for a bit more than two weeks -— due to a COPD flare.
Ended up staying longer than expected due to having low pulse-ox levels later in the day and when walking far distances. I had to get it documented the right way and the hospital kept screwing it up until eventually they got it right and now I wear oxygen during the day and night.
Other problem: I was denied what I had been praying and living for for the last two years: Living in a Jewish Family Housing disability housing. For some reason they suddenly denied me based on dividends of my 401 K...which made me exceed their income limit.
But thanks for my rabbi and social worker calling them it seems I have an option so I am in the running again I just have to do something to the set—up of my 401 K *so I will not touch the money in it* and I should be OK to move in. All I know is I need to hire a lawyer to draw up some paperwork or another (where this money is going to come from I have no idea) and I should be OK. I just have to wait and see.
Unfortunately I cannot even afford 400 dollars in rent due in 5 days. So not sure if this will work out of not.
But I am home and with the cats and that is the main thing. If you could help with a kind word, thought or donation to help with rent and legal fees I would be forever in your debt (houstonbfskinner at netscape dot net is my paypal address). All I know is it *sucks* to be broke...and on oxygen and depression.
